Ree's Holiday Bacon Appetizer

Made with only three ingredients, this bite-sized appetizer is a go-to pick. Ree tops crunchy crackers with a pile of nutty Parmesan cheese, wraps them with bacon and bakes them slowly at a low temperature until the bacon is crispy and the cheese melted.

Giada's Cranberry-Orange Glazed Turkey

Instead of cooking her turkey whole, Giada cuts it into six pieces, then roasts it twice — once with just olive oil and seasonings and then again with a buttery glaze of cranberry and orange juices.

Sunny's Fried Apple and Pear Ice Cream

You don't need an ice-cream maker to prepare these sweet treats. Sunny combines softened vanilla ice cream with tender apples and pears, rolls the mixture into balls and then coats them three times with flaked corn cereal. After a few hours in the freezer, the balls are deep-fried until golden brown and crispy.
